Abstract:

“Businesses are sprouting up in Nash and Edgecombe Counties, where agriculture was once the top economic producer. Reaping that bounty took a lot of sowing, including workforce training, small-business assistance and some urban amenities.” Norris Tolson is president and CEO of Rocky Mount-based Carolinas Gateway Partnership, an economic booster for Edgecombe County, Rocky Mount, Nashville and Tarboro.
